URL inside [vc_raw_html] shortcode

That is odd… I have used raw shortcodes without issues… The shortcode should not effect how the translation of data gets handled. Can you run a query before and after the install to compare the differences? On the install report (step 3 of the installer) did you get any errors?

i installed it without any issue, but i just uncompress the zip file nothing more.

here it is what i found:
visual composer 4.3.1
duplicator 0.5.4
Element having issue: RAW HTML (https://prntscr.com/3zzg48) of visual composer

in MySQL here is the code snippet…
[vc_raw_html]JTNDYSUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIyc2VydmljZS1saW5rJTIyJTIwdGl0bGUlM0QlMjJJJTIwd2FudCUyMGElMjBXZWJzaXRlJTJDJTIwV2Vi...[/vc_raw_html]

here it is how to get a clean content… so firstly uncoded with MIME base64 and next rawurldecde.

rawurldecode(base64_decode(strip_tags($content)));

thx

Hey Alian,

I see the issue. Duplicator does look for base64 strings and tries to decode them however in the case of that short code it looks like it is intermixing base64 strings with normal characters, which is normally not a best practices approach.

The engine that does the base64 extraction assumes that the entire field is base64 encoded. The replace engine would have to be written to perform the extraction at a more general level on larger text strings, basically detecting the base64 string inside the larger string, extracting it, replacing it, then safely reconstructing it… It would definitely have to be a separate option as doing those types of look ups with PHP could really slow things down.

I’ll add the item to the todo list and see if there is a way to work around that type of configuration.

Cheers~

I have the same problem! i follow this treath for news. Thanks!
